Advent arrangement
The Advent arrangement is a jewelery established in Germany and other, Christian countries, which is set up mainly in the private sector for the first Advent. Compared to the Advent wreath, which has a Christian tradition, and announces the arrival of Jesus Christ over four weeks, the Advent arrangement has more of a pagan origin and should bring a piece of nature into its own four walls in the cold season. The basis of the arrangement are twigs of fir and other coniferous trees, which were previously taken from the forests of the area and are now offered by professional florists especially for this purpose. In addition, the Advent arrangement is usually decorated with balls, figurines or dried fruits and resembles the few weeks later to be built Christmas tree. There are no limits to the imagination of creating a Christmas arrangement, but in many households the arrangement of the arrangement is very traditional and can incorporate decorations that have been owned by the family for generations. Also in the online offer of floristik21.de numerous decorative elements and figures are offered, which help in the design of a nostalgic or modern Advent arrangement.
Like the Advent arrangement, the Advent wreath is a natural adornment that is set up or hung up during the pre-Christmas season. A traditional Advent wreath consists of fir branches or other conifers, which were woven into a solid wreath. On the wreath there are four candles as symbols for the four Advent Sundays of the Christian religion, in addition, other decorative elements such as loops, Christmas wooden figures or decorative ribbons can aesthetically enrich the Advent wreath. The Advent wreath is offered by both professional retailers, florists and retailers in the decorative area, but also offer numerous individual elements, with which the design of an individual Advent wreath is possible. Decorative wreaths of conifers in the winter time to bring in their own four walls, following a century-old tradition and has already been established in the pagan environment, by the spread of the Christian religion, the Advent wreath, however, has gained special significance and is thus different from other arrangements of Advent and Christmas time off. Symbolically, each of the four Advent candles stands for one of the four Sundays in Advent, with a candle being additionally lit at weekly intervals, thus expressing the anticipation of the birth of Jesus Christ as the Messiah of Christianity.
The term altar decoration summarizes all ornaments that are firmly anchored in the Christian religion and adorn the altar of a Christian building. In today's parlance, the word altar jewelry is further used and used for flowers, candles and other elements that are generally used in the nave for decorative purposes and therefore need not alone find their place on an altar. For centuries, floristry has been closely associated with the tradition of the church and has repeatedly contributed to flowers and other plants being used as decoration in sacred buildings. The main goal here is to give the church or chapel a natural and positive note, since otherwise, as in a secular building no decoration or other design of the altar or nave is common. Bringing flowers as altar jewelry is common practice at various Christian festivals, such as Thanksgiving or Easter, and is more cultivated in Catholic regions than in Protestantism. Also for funeral services or weddings altar jewelry is set up, which adapts in its color scheme and the selection of flowers and plants to the respective event. In earlier centuries, altar decorations were still brought free of charge by gardeners or flower-bearers of the region as homage to God, but modern church congregations usually maintain a close relationship with a familiar floristry, which supplies the right altar decoration depending on the event and the season. 
The term Arrangement comes from the French language and means in its original sense compilation, the term is especially in the arts and crafts used its application. Also in floristry, the arrangement is thus established as a term and refers here either the collection of flowers and other plants to a bouquet, bouquet or arrangement or the combination of several bouquets and arrangements to a Gesamtkunstwerk.

Through an arrangement, an artist, to whom the florist can be counted in the broadest sense, can also develop his own character and combine flowers and plants in an individual way. The targeted breaking of rules of aesthetics for the creation of something new is just as allowed here as the integration of other decorative elements in an arrangement that are not directly related to floristry. Especially in landscaping and horticulture, arrangements of this kind can be discovered in which flowerbeds or ornamental gardens with decorative figures or fountains are additionally decorated. In addition to subjective aesthetics, geometric or mathematical criteria can serve as the basis for an artistic arrangement. 
The Biedermeier bouquet is a special variant of a bouquet of flowers, which is characterized by charming decorations and a rather small shape. The Biedermeier bouquet is based in particular on the art epoche of the same name, which is to be settled in the first half of the 19th century and embodies a bourgeois-conservative, but also ornamental and lush style. The aesthetic importance or even exaggeration of art objects is also attributable to this era, which is why modern Biedermeier bouquets want to achieve a decidedly elegant and stylish impression and thus distinguish themselves from modern bouquets and bouquets. As a rule, in a Biedermeier bouquet classic, native flowers are used, exotic plants with a European cultivation in recent decades thus account for this bouquet variant.

The bouquet is understood to be a special form of flower container in which only fresh cut flowers are used and which has a single binding point. The term ostrich derives from the Old German name for the word "sprout", which already makes it clear that the flowers in a bouquet are already in full bloom. Although there have been arrangements of flowers and other plants since antiquity, the bouquet in its present form is rather a young phenomenon, which was first discovered in the 19th century. The bouquet of flowers was a sign of prosperity at the time, as members of the bourgeoisie were unable to spend their money on essential food and the like on their own and could instead upgrade their living space with a decorative bouquet. In the nineteenth century, horticulture and floriculture were separated from the aristocracy to the general bourgeoisie, making a bouquet of flowers increasingly commonplace in everyday life and affordable to ordinary people in the first decades of the twentieth century. Today, a bouquet can be purchased pre-fabricated in flower shops as well as in discounters. If you value an individual bouquet, you can have it personally put together by a florist. 
The term bridal bouquet refers to a particular form of bouquet, as it is made especially for the wedding of a newlyweds.

Here, the bride throws her bouquet at a group of unmarried visitors to the wedding, to which she turns her back when throwing. The one who catches the bridal bouquet will, according to tradition, marry next. 
A bouquet of flowers is a collection of flowers of various species and the associated foliage. The bouquet is one of the most important products of a professional florist and can include both the same flower and a mixture of different flower species. Especially in the latter case, a professional florist applies his knowledge about the numerous types of flowers and thus finds a compilation that not only harmonizes perfectly with each other in color, but also optimally addresses the botanical requirements of the individual plants. In order to allow a bouquet of flowers as long as possible, it is recommended, for example, to combine flowers with a similarly stored water and nutrient requirement. A bouquet of flowers is usually put together in loose form in a modern flower shop and held together solely by a foil or flower silk. If the bunch of flowers is unpacked again in a private environment, the composition of the individual flowers will continue to be cohesive, simply by standing upright in a vase. In this regard, the bouquet of flowers is to be distinguished from a bouquet or container in which the flowers and their accessories have already been connected in advance by the florist with flower binder and similar tools and thus permanently maintain their compact shape. 
The term "car decoration" includes all floristic elements that have been specially designed for attachment to vehicles of all kinds and thus allow an embellishment for certain events.

Centuries ago, simple horse-drawn carriages and sumptuous carriages were adorned with flowers on certain occasions to turn a happy day into colorful colors. Even decorating the horses and other draft animals for this purpose was established and can be regarded as the forerunner of today's car jewelry. 
Church ornaments are all ornaments that are traditionally found in a church building and this often take symbolic meanings in the respective religion. In the Christianity of Central Europe, church decoration was already integrated into the architecture of churches and chapels for centuries, but nowadays the term is understood as a decorative accessory that is set up for church festivals and is intended to ensure a festive and fitting occasion. An important role is taken here by floral decoration, which permanently finds its place in churches throughout the church year and is here regularly exchanged for a fresh sight. Since a clerical building is more of a purpose-built structure dedicated solely to holding worship services and Christian festivals, traditionally a cooler atmosphere can be found in church buildings. By floral church decorations, the atmosphere should rather be loosened and create a vivid impression, which meets the idea of the divine life donator. In other religions around the world, church decoration also plays an essential role and is often even more opulently positioned than in Catholicism or Protestantism. The adornment of an altar can for example be done by a complete covering with flowers of the season. 
Coffin decorations are arrangements, wreaths and other objects of floristry and decoration, which are placed on the coffin in a morgue and are intended to convey an aesthetic value and a special memory.

Anyone planning to keep a bouquet longer in dried form should opt for wetting water a few days before the peak of the bouquet's bloom. In this case, the supply of water and nutrients is still sufficient, so that the plant can develop their flowering, a further development does not take place. Set up in a safe place, the bouquet of flowers dries up in its present form, leaves and stems lose part of their bright color, but remain aesthetically pleasing. In modern floristry, the production of dry bouquets is a popular discipline, here already on flowers and other green plants in the dried state is used, which have a very stable and hardened structure. Even with such containers, care should be taken to ensure careful transport and handling, as the risk of peeling off stalks, leaves and flowers is always present. Dry bouquets are used in private homes as well as hotels and restaurants, where bouquets of this kind require less care than fresh cut flowers.
